Weighing 532 grams, this versatile, dishwasher-safe knife excels at preparing vegetables, meat, and fish with professional precision. ## Description With the right tools, cooking is not only child's play, but also a lot of fun. With the Chinese chef's knife from ZWILLING you can prepare meat, fish, vegetables and herbs at home in an authentic manner. The thin blade with a large cutting edge and a very sharp cutting edge reliably chops particularly large vegetables, such as different types of cabbage. Your hand is protected by the special shape of the knife and the ergonomically shaped plastic handle. The extra large blade means that the cut material can be easily and cleanly transported into the pot. The modern three-rivet design with the ZWILLING logo makes this elegant knife set an essential part of your kitchen. ZWILLING has upheld high-quality products in the kitchen and beauty sector since 1731. Thanks to our traditional values, creative vision and innovative techniques, we offer you a diverse range of products that are characterised by the highest quality, functionality and an elegant, timeless design. Top quality begins with quality material. This is why our knife steel is manufactured to the highest standards. The ZWILLING special alloy is characterised by an optimum ratio between carbon (hardness) and chrome (corrosion resistance). In combination with the manufacturing process, the composition results in a robust and extremely durable knife that is stable, corrosion-resistant and flexible. Thanks to a heat treatment optimally matched to the steel, this steel achieves between 55 and 58 Rockwell. The right material hardness is important: If the steel is too soft, the sharpness of the blade quickly diminishes. If it is too hard the steel breaks. With our innovative FRIODUR blades the steel goes through 4 steps of heat treatment. The last step, ice hardening, improves hardness, wear behaviour and corrosion resistance. In the final process, tension is removed from the material, resulting in high flexibility and safety in use and preventing blade breakage. The unmistakable three-rivet design of our Twin Pollux knife series is characterised by a flat heel with handle grips mounted on it. The rivets connect the two elements together, making the knife a durable piece of kitchen equipment. Even a good knife should always be cared for to ensure its sharpness. Therefore only use flexible cutting boards such as bamboo and plastic. A sharpening rod sharpens dull blades. To do this, pull the blade along the sharpening steel at a 15Β° angle in a slight arc and repeat the process on each side depending on the desired sharpness. ## Features - MULTI-PURPOSE CLEAVER: Kitchen knife with an 18.5 cm blade length and elegant triple-riveted handle, ideal for preparing vegetables, meat and fish in the traditional Chinese style. - HIGH-QUALITY WORKMANSHIP: Large blade for preparing larger vegetables and transferring chopped ingredients, long-lasting sharpness, stable and flexible thanks to the ice-hardened FRIODUR blade, seamless transition from handle to blade. - COMFORTABLE AND SAFE HANDLING: Ergonomic plastic handle for safe cutting without slipping, balanced weight. - STAINLESS STEEL KNIFE: Stamped from special stainless steel, robust plastic handle in a three-rivet design, durable and corrosion-resistant. - SCOPE OF DELIVERY: 1x ZWILLING Chinese Chef’s Knife, Twin Pollux, blade length: 18.5 cm, weight: 532 g, material: special stainless steel, plastic handle. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Asin | B000XFG2QI | | Best Sellers Rank | 238,065 in Home & Kitchen (See Top 100 in Home & Kitchen) 142 in Chef's Knives | | Blade Colour | Silver | | Blade Edge | Plain | | Blade Material Type | Stainless Steel | | Bladelength | 7 Inches | | Brand Name | ZWILLING | | Colour | Black | | Construction Type | Stamped | | Country Of Origin | China | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (2,298) 4.7 out of 5 stars | | Global Trade Identification Number | 04250822701081 | | Handle Material | Plastic | | Included Components | 1 x ZWILLING Twin Pollux Chinese chef's knife, 18cm | | Is The Item Dishwasher Safe | Yes | | Item Length | 32.27 Centimetres | | Item Type Name | ZWILLING Twin Pollux Chinese chef's knife, 18cm | | Item Weight | 0.46 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | Zwilling | | Manufacturer Part Number | 30795-180-0 | | Material Type | Stainless Steel | | Model Number | 1001407 | | Number Of Items | 1 | | Set Name | Twin Pollux | | Size | 18 cm | | Unit Count | 1.0 count | ## Product Details - **Blade edge:** Plain - **Blade material:** Stainless Steel - **Brand:** ZWILLING - **Colour:** Black - **Handle material:** Plastic ## Images ![ZWILLING Twin Pollux Chinese Chef Knife with Broad Blade, 18.5 cm, Special Stainless Steel, Black - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61q3StWnelL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Is the blade attractive to magnets?** A: This is a steel blade.

However, being an engineer I managed to grind back 15mm and re sharpen .πŸ‘πŸ˜ŠπŸ€” **Q: How to sharpen this knife by using a whetstone please?** A: Set at approx 25-30 deg and keep the angle constant, sharp as a razor. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Chinese slicer *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 10 February 2025* Obviously a western company making a Chinese slicer style knife so its not traditional however it is really rather good. I bought this at the same time as a Ken Hot wooden handle version, I prefer the Ken Hot knife however for ease of use this cannot be beaten. I'm happy to put it in the dishwasher, the steel is not too hard to risk chipping and its razor sharp out of the box (and east to sharpen). Definitely a keeper! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Impressive *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 22 December 2024* It is sharp only time will tell how long the blade holds this but what impresses me most is the weight. I have a blade half this size and i would swear it's heavier. Of course the smaller blade was a lot cheaper so perhaps the lightness is a sign of quality. Only niggle would have been the size being a bit unweildly but the lack of weight compensates for this by far. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent all rounder. *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 10 February 2023* This is a Chinese Chopper style knife not a cleaver. It is designed to chop vegetables, slice meats etc. Not designed to cut through bone like a cleaver.It is exceptionally sharp and well balanced and feels comfortable in the hand.This is my main go to knife. Excellent in both fine slicing, for example cucumber and tomato, and performs particularly well when cutting through large vegetables like swede, red cabbage and celeriac.Highly recommended. ## Frequently Bought Together - ZWILLING Twin Pollux Chinese Chef's Knife, 7 inch, Black - ZWILLING Twin Signature 5.5-inch Prep Knife, Razor-Sharp, Made in Company-Owned German Factory with Special Formula Steel perfected for almost 300 Years, Dishwasher Safe - ZWILLING Twin Signature 3-pc German Knife Set, Razor-Sharp, Made in Company-Owned German Factory with Special Formula Steel perfected for almost 300 Years, Dishwasher Safe --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/50601570-zwilling-twin-pollux-chinese-chef-knife-with-broad-blade-18](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/50601570-zwilling-twin-pollux-chinese-chef-knife-with-broad-blade-18) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-09-02*
